21. "I can't stand by and watch": ADHD, unfairness & justice sensitivity

Hi cutest babes, 

In this week's episode, Tara has been stealthily avoiding sleep by hyperfixating on iPhone automations and she is now Elon Musk 😎. Or is she just in denial that she's Siri's bitch now? 🤖 Grace is ripping clocks off the wall in rage as per uge. So a fairly stock standard week here at ‘Your ADHD besties’ HQ (the garage). 

THIS WEEK'S DILEMMA:
We take a deep dive into the biiiig topic of justice sensitivity: why some of us can have full body reactions to inequity. We explain:

• WTAF justice sensitivity is, and why ADHDers are often passionate about standing up for the marginalized
• We then share some personal stories from times we've advocated and got it right (and when we got it wrong too).
• We talk about the importance of seeking consent, awareness when we may be projecting our feelings onto others, and making sure we don't burn out
• The best part: we hear some listener stories about their experience with this common ADHD trait! 🕺 

IREGGY SEGGY:
Today we're reading out weird notes from our notes app - and we want you to send us yours! YOU BETTER DM us on IG @adhdbestiespodcast or email us hello@adhdbesties.com with screenshots of the weirdest notes in your phone so we can read them out on an ep soon 🤣

RECS:

• Grace recommends two binge-worthy Instagram accounts that soothe her need for visually gorgeous ASMR... The mesmerising @_shetiesflies_ and addictive @ez.bookdesign
• Tara recommends a sunscreen called 'Queen Screen' by Ultra Violette that won't make you feel like you're wearing Ross Geller's paste pants on your face 👙☀️😎

We'll be back next THURSDAY babes, and you know what NOT to do... (RSD) 😘

Grace & Ta Ta xx
